Duo for Violin & Flute
Welcome to the Royal Suite located high in Toronto’s venerable Royal York Hotel.
Recently I received a welcome invitation to provide some background music for an intimate reception organized by the St. Georges Society of Toronto, Canada’s oldest charitable organization.
I was excited to learn that not only was the event to be held in the historic Royal York, but in what’s called the Royal Suite where royalty actually reside when visiting Toronto as they tour the Commonwealth – how cool is that?
So I asked my Max, my violinist friend from Urban Flute Ensemble, to join me and he and I had a great time playing through a variety of duos with animated conversation serving as a backdrop. The St. George’s Valentine’s Day reception was a thoroughly delightful experience!
I love providing background music, and have been amazed at some of the incredible worlds that have opened before me as a freelance musician – having a chance to play for this prestigious organization in the ‘Queen’s Chambers’ ranks right up there!
